Selena Gomez chatted briefly with Thrive Global for their Thrive Questionnaire series. The series “gives an intimate look inside the lives of some of the world’s most successful people.”

In her questionnaire, Selena answered questions ranging from her relationship with her phone to the last time she felt burned out. Highlights can be found below.

On her relationship with her phone: “I recently took 90 days off. During that time I did not have my cellphone. It was the most refreshing, calming, rejuvenating feeling. Now I rarely pick up my phone, and only limited people have access to me.”

On the last time she felt burned out: “Three months ago, before I took a hiatus to take care of myself.

On a quote that gives her strength: “You are not what happened to you, you are what you chose to become after what happened to you.”
